Lucian White has been struggling financially and emotionally after their late aunt has passed away after their eighteenth birthday. They’ve been trying to get multiple jobs to keep themselves from going off into living the streets, but however after many times of being fired on the spot after terrible anxiety issues. Things are starting to look dire... However things turned around when they were approached in the streets, a young, beautiful man handed them a colorful flyer before handing one to each person that walked by. It was a promotion flyer for a circus called, " The Melty Smile Crew, " that just came into town and they're looking for people to come and enjoy the shows they're hosting in the next few weeks.
Admission Fee was only a dollar, the Circus was only a few blocks away...
It couldn't hurt to take a look, right?

‹ Recruitment ›
However, please know that I am a 19 year old college student that's struggling with terrible social anxiety,
panic attacks and stress / pressure from school. If you're looking for payment, I'm terribly sorry
to say that I will not be able to provide any bills to sit in your paypal / etc. But, if you volunteer to help
out, I'll accept you with a big hug and extremely grateful smile.
At this point, I've went through two artists during the construction of this game and it's
starting to come to the point where I really need to use money / kickstarter / etc. to
get this project onto its feet. Because if I can't do that, then this game is good as dead.
I don't really want to see this going down, but seeing where it's heading now, then it'll
just be in the graveyard or either getting the Persona 5 treatment and delayed until
2020 - 2021.
Since I don't really have that much when it comes to money in the bank, I can't really
demand for the most details until the the required visuals are needed to create a
kickstarter for this project. If you have reasonable prices for your art, please
contact me through my e-mail. ( saechoivn@gmail.com )
